Program Note
Queer cinema and images have been around since the dawn of filmmaking, and here, award-winning documentary producer-directors Klainberg and Ades chart the outing of queer film from its days as pure subtext in classic Hollywood ([Ben-Hur], [Spartacus]), up to the proud films and themes of `90s New Queer Cinema. Starting where the film`s de facto companion piece, [The Celluloid Closet], ended, [Fabulous!] focuses less on the hidden gay cinema and filmmakers of years past and more on the modern trends in GBLT film and the mainstreaming of gay subject matter. From Kenneth Anger, to the AIDS cinema of the `80s, to Ang Lee, the film looks at how queer images were created and eventually came into their own. Featuring interviews with Gus Van Sant, Heather Matarazzo, Rose Troche, Jonathan Caouette, Wilson Cruz, and John Waters among others. [Fabulous!] is what a documentary should be: informative and entertaining.
